I would have thought with your 'super duper' jumped up JAA licence that you would not lower yourself by taking a job in the U.S.
BTW, do you really think they would be interested in someone of your ability, when they have pools of thousands with real 'AIRLINE TIME' that just so happened to be furloughed after recent events.
Wake up and smell the coffee, YOU choose the JAA route, so YOU stick with it!!
Tough luck Buster!!!!!
p.s. message to 'little timmy Blackknight', this will be the kind of post you will be sticking on this forum, if you pass...
